Venusaur Sprite Redrawn

For this last piece I tried combining the shading style of both the prior pieces. It came out a lil bit messy and I'm unsure of the colours and how they look. But, I think she came out ok in the end.

For the other two pieces:

Hmmm...very cool.
I would actually recommend linking to the previous works, because currently it easy to navigate to them due to NG's "artist profile recent work" board, but as you continue with you work, finding the related pieces might become more difficult.
Onto your excellent piece!
My favorite Gen 1 starter, hands down, so this gets a lot of love from me, and it frankly adorable.
I do like how your where experimenting with the cell dots over the three pieces, and I have to say that I think what you did initially with Charizard, using them as slight accent really worked well, and I think you already understand the that the amount used with Blastoise distracted from your over all design work.
I think you store happy medium here, and I am not sure you quite got there.
I really like the dots, and they are a very unique way of achieving what you are going for, and with the charizard I feel you used it as a wonderful accent on the tail and wings.
I think the light highlight you put on the petals could have been dots, and perhaps a some sort of accents on the ferns.
I only go into this detail to say I appreciate the effort you put into these pieces, and to encourage you in your pursuits.
Thank you for making these.

Ah thanks for letting me know about the linking dude I'll do it straight away. And dude thank you a ton for the in depth review of my stuff it's good to see people care enough to give me feedback like this. I'd say that yes the blastoise I at the time felt like I went overboard - it was mostly overcompensation from the first piece but it wasn't the right call. Also yea I should've used the dot highlights on the petals. I might revisit these in the future or do something in the same vein soon.
